1969 marked the launch of the caliber Chrono-Matic, one of the first automatic chronograph calibers, developed in partnership with Heuer-Leonidas and Buren-Hamilton. This revolutionary caliber combines the performance and functionality of a chronograph with the comfort of an automatic watch, which doesn’t need to be wound every day.
Breitling launched its first SuperOcean automatic (Ref. 2105) with the newly patented waterproof rotating bezel fitted on an extra-large 48mm case, water resistant to 20ATM. The striking, orange-colored design elements characteristic of the early 1970s and the lime-green luminous indices give the black/white dial a fantastic and refreshing vintage look which still looks modern today. The caliber of the Ref. 2105 is equipped with a 15-minute countdown timer at 3 o'clock with five minutes marked in orange and a 6-hour totalizer at 9 o'clock.
It is the only model diving watch produced by Breitling, which is famous for its aviation watches.

Case: 47mm stainless steel with black rotating bezel in excellent condition with some light surface scratches. Caseback engraving is strong and clear.
